DC Comics to NYC Gallery: Pull out of gay Batman!

DC Comics is not happy that a New York art gallery is featuring a series of homoerotic watercolors of Batman and Robin. The semi-nude superhero portraits by artist Mark Chamberlain have also made it to the Artnet website, and DC wants those babies pulled immediately.

Batman and Robin, currently vacationing with Bert and Ernie, were unavailable for comment.

Now, that's something you don't see every day.

Since I don't want a smackdown from DC Comics myself, I'm not about to provide any links here, but I will tell you this: if you search for Mark Chamberlain on Google Images, you might just see "the softer side" (and, uh, the harder side, too, come to think of it) of Batman and Robin.

Watercolors. So tasteful.

I said to someone today that they look like something you could create with the $1.99 watercolor set from the local drugstore...

It's back to school time! How about picking up some watercolors and making your very own homoerotic art! Just $1.99 at Walgreens!
